Athlete physiology, artwork
Athlete physiology. Computer artwork of a male athlete, with enlargements to show the important physiological enhancements typical of most athletes. These include an improved blood supply to carry oxygen around the body, and enhanced muscle tone. These are often areas targeted by performance enhancing drugs such as erythropoietin, a hormone that controls red blood cell production (erythropoiesis), and anabolic steroids, which increase muscle mass

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork by Claus Lunau titled "Athlete Physiology" provides a detailed glimpse into the physiological enhancements that are commonly observed in athletes. The computer-generated image showcases a male athlete against a white background, allowing viewers to focus solely on the intricate details of his body. Enlargements within the artwork highlight two crucial aspects of an athlete's physiology: improved blood supply and enhanced muscle tone. These characteristics play vital roles in an athlete's performance and are often targeted by performance-enhancing drugs such as erythropoietin (EPO) and anabolic steroids. The artist skillfully emphasizes how EPO, a hormone responsible for red blood cell production, enhances oxygen-carrying capacity throughout the body. This is represented through enlarged vessels transporting oxygen-rich blood to various muscles, enabling heightened endurance during physical activities. Additionally, Lunau illustrates how anabolic steroids contribute to increased muscle mass. The enlarged muscular structure exemplifies the impact these substances have on athletic performance by enhancing strength and power. By showcasing these physiological improvements typically seen in athletes, this artwork sheds light on both the positive attributes of athleticism as well as the controversial topic of doping in sports. It serves as a thought-provoking piece that invites viewers to contemplate the complexities surrounding human anatomy, improvement techniques, and ethical considerations within competitive athletics.
